In celebration of the holidays and Ubisoft’s 30th anniversary, Ubisoft will be giving back to fans with the 30 Days of Giveaways campaign, which will take place from November 24, 2016 to December 23, 2016.

Ubisoft revealed its plans for E3 2016, where it will present highly anticipated titles such as Watch Dogs 2, For Honor or Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands, as well as new content coming for live games and – as usual – some surprises.

As was rumored earlier, Ubisoft has confirmed that there will be no new Assassin's Creed title this year, and will instead take this sabbatical to "re-examining the franchise" and "evolve the game mechanics."

Ubisoft acquired Longtail Halifax, known for Rocksmith and Sports Connection, to join its international network of studios, while folding Longtail Studios Quebec, who worked on Dance on Broadway and Michael Jackson: The Experience, into Ubisoft Quebec.

Building on the popular naval missions featured in AC III, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is set in the 1700s during the Golden Age of Piracy, letting you roam the Caribbean islands as Edward Kenway, grandfather of AC III's main character Ratonhnhaké:ton, aka Connor.
